This CVE was published Apr 22, 2026 and is one of 1 known issue for this plugin.
Update, patch or deactivate.
Update Table Manager to a release after 1.0.0, or disable and remove it until a fixed version is available.
A safe version is available, so updating to that version or later is the preferred remediation. If an immediate update is not practical, consider a targeted application patch or temporarily restricting the affected functionality.
Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.
Technical description
The Table Manager plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Sensitive Information Exposure in all versions up to, and including, 1.0.0 via the 'table_manager' shortcode. The shortcode handler `tablemanager_render_table_shortcode()` takes a user-controlled `table` attribute, applies only `sanitize_key()` for sanitization, and concatenates the value with `$wpdb->prefix` to form a full database table name. It then executes `DESC` and `SELECT *` queries against this table and renders all rows and columns to the frontend. There is no allowlist check to ensure only plugin-created tables can be accessed — the `tablemanager_created_tables` option is only referenced in admin functions, never in the shortcode handler. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with Contributor-level access and above, to extract sensitive data from arbitrary WordPress database tables.
